MADELAINE FEHRMAN'- Mag is the bundle of cheerfulness who hails from Hillside. She is a true specimen of the fairer sex, with her ready laugh and fluent tongue. 'lMag's sideline seems to be dancing. One can see her swingin' it every lunch period in the P. H. S. ballroom. Besides being fun loving, 'KMag also possesses business acumen. She is circulation manager of the Ili-S-P11115 Newspaper. MARION FELIX-In Marion we find a quiet sunniness which is very appealing. Marion takes the Commercial Course. She plans to work in the business world in the position of secretary. Marion has kept herself more or less in seclusion during her four years with us. However, her lovely smile and generous heart have been responsible for the formation of many fine friendships. THOMAS FERGUSON-We introduce Tom, our athletically inclined scholar. He is another one of our happy- go-lucky Shop boys. Tom is very much interested in all types of sports. In addition, Tom enjoys dancing. He is very popular with the opposite sex. Upon graduation, UTom would like to be an atheltic coach. Go to it, Ferg. You may be another T. T. Allen. VVho knovvs?? ANNA FERNSLER- Do unto others as you would have them do unto you seems to be Anna's chief philosophy of life. Her good sportsmanship is one of her many assets. Anna is a Commercial student. Upon completion of her school career she hopes to be an asset to some prospective employer in the role of stenographer. Stamp collecting and piano playing occupy most of Anna's leisure time. LIVIA FERRANTI-Here we have a rather quiet person. Livia has been a student in the Commercial Department of our school. Her favorite hobby is playing the piano, which she does very well. She has chosen nursing as her vocation. Her sweet personality will aid her in excelling in this work in the same way as it has gathered a host of friends for her. RUTH FISHER-f'By her voice, you shall know her. Ruth's singing has done much toward increasing the fame of P. H. S. This popular young lady is a Commercial student, ranking in the upper half of the class. She has been chosen treasurer of the P. G. L., president of the A Cappella Choir, and has been on the Newspaper staff. Ruthie intends to continue studying music after she leaves school. May she attain success as easily as she reaches those high IIOICS. VVILLIAM FISHER-In Mr. Fisher we present one of the best dancers in the class. Bill is the envy of all the boys when he's swingin' it on the ballroom floor. He is taking the Commercial Course and plans to enter into the business world upon completion of his studies in school. This blond Gable takes a definite interest in the female element, with which he has won an impressive measure of approval. , . I . I l . l ll llllllllllllllllll lll'llll lll WILLIAM FLAIL--Take life as it comes, is what Bill subscribes to. He is enrolled in the Academic Course of study. Bill's favorite diversion seems to be dancing. He never allows himself to become ruffled. At least, that's something! Upon completion of his high school course, Bill intends to enter the portals of higher learning. Penn State Center is his immediate objective. DAVID FOSTER--A popular and likeable chap is this Dave Foster. During his four years in high school, he has more than once had to explain to various faculty members how he happened to have the exact facsimile of the work turned in by his contemporary, Jimmie VVatson, or vice versa. It is Dave's ambition to become an aviator in the service of Uncle Sam. lie has only two weaknesses-mathematics and gals! CHARLOTTE FOX--In Charlotte we present a very demure brunette who seems to be very quiet. But underneath this mask we find a girl bubbling over with fun-the 'Kfoxy type. Charlotte is an Academic enrolee. Stamp col- lecting ranks first with her as a hobby. As a second choice, she prefers piano playing. Charlotte has a host of friends, who regard her as tops as a delightful acquaintance. DOROTHY FRANTZ-This happy-go-lucky young Miss winks at life with a mischievous eye. To have all the fun she can seems to he her main conception of life. HDottie's contagious giggle can be heard almost anywhere at any time. She's a devotee to things commercial and plans to take up stenography as her life's work. Concerning hobbies, K'Dottie gives the nod to reading and hiking. BETTY FREEDLINE-Betty is the very incarnation of efficiency. It is, without a doubt, a quality much to be admired. Her desire is to become a full-fledged secretary upon her graduation. Betty's leisure time interests center in music. She plays the piano very well and fully believes with Fred VVaring that 'fthe song is the thing. FREDA FREEMAN-This blonde young lady comes to us from the northern section of town. She, too, is enrolled in the Commercial Course. Her immediate desire is to take up nursing. Freda is very quiet, but this trait does not lessen her popularity. She has proven herself to be a worthwhile friend both in time of need and of pleasure. HONORA FREILER-Honora, better known to her ever-increasing circle of friends as Nora, is a jolly, up-and- coming girl. Such a sports fan we never saw, for she managed to attend each and every game, whether it was played in snow, rain, or out of town. A girl as faithful as she certainly should possess a promising outlook for all her future ambitions. Page 25

ROBERT FREILER-Here's another of that Harrison Street gang! But he's right up there in school affairs, espe- cially when there's talking to be done. Since one is often judged by the company he keeps, we can say that Bob must be one of the finest. The Hi-Y and the Ili-S-Poli: Newspaper will lose a real spark-plug when he leaves the corridors of P. H. S. VVith a wish for his luck and prosperity, we salute the good-will philosopher of '39. VVARREN FULLER-Warren, an Industrial student, is one of the few quiet male members of the senior class. How- ever, VVarren is quiet only when ordinary conversation is involved. VVhen it comes to singing, he has a lot to 'fsay ! He has a very powerful, deep voice-a most valuable asset to the bass section of the A Cappella Choir. FRANCIS GAFFNEY-Red hair-temper? Well, in this case, red hair isn't accompanied by a flaring temper. At least he has kept it under control, for it has never reared its head in our presence. Although Francis has always been, more or less, a 'lsilent partner, there is inside information that there's more to him than meets the eye. Nevertheless, our best wishes for his chosen career go with him! FRANCIS GAINER--Francis is one of the bashful, good-looking boys in the class of '39. He is willing to cooperate to the fullest extent with all of his teachers, and, as a result, is well thought of by both teachers and students alike. He likes sports from the fan's point of view. All in all, we are proud to call him a friend. PAUL GLENN-During his four years in high school, Paul has taken the Industrial Course, showing special interest in machinebshop work. Although a quiet fellow in the classroom, he has plenty to say when in the company of his friends. Being athletically inclined, he enjoys most sports, particularly basketball and football. He has our best wishes for a successful future! THOMAS GOLDEN-The old adage, Words are women, deeds are men, might be applied to Tommy. But he certainly must be commended on the excellent work accomplished when he does get down to business. Tom proved a most able leader, having served in the capacity of officer in many organizations. He possesses an infectious good humor, and, thank goodness, is one person who can see a funny side to life. LESTER GOTTSCHALL-May we present the class's 'fharrel of funn? Therels never a dull moment when Les is around, especially when he's with his inseparable playmate, f'Bob. He swings it with the best of them, being a member of the Brigadiers. One thing which presents a mystery is why he can't get good grades. He does, we think, apply himself. Vi'e suggest a bit of J't'fflI!l5 thinking! lll l 'll llllllllllllllllllll lllll l ll . l , MARY GRIES-VVe'll say it with flowers to the little Miss who has accomplished quite a feat in the eyes of her classmates. She took four years of Latin and liked it! Showing superior ability, Mary was admitted to the National Honor Society in her senior year. Not many have been able to penetrate her quiet reserve, but we feel sure that she is a true friend. BERNICE HAINES- For she is just the quiet kind, whose nature never worries. Here is Miss Punctuality herself. Yes, sirree, she's always on time. Bernice puts everyone at ease with her slow, earnest, kind, sincere manner and ready smile. Always willing to help another, she is a sure cure for those gloomsl Madame Know-It-All-Hi-S'Potts predicts nothing but a glowing future for her. LESI.EY HALBERSTADT- Les is one of those amiable fellows who serves as a great lift when one has the blues. In thinking of him, we are reminded of the saying, Men are not measured by inches. llis light heart, cheery smile, and carefree manner will be missed from the halls of P. H. S. Vl'e add our wish that complete happiness and satisfaction be his always. FRANCIS HAMMER-Francis is another of these silent men who goes about his own business. He has been active on the cross-Country team for the last two years, In addition, he is never too busy to indulge in a bit of horseplay with the rest of his many close companions. Quiet, but very much alive - such is he. ALBERTA HANSMANN-Alberta is another member of the cheer-leading squad. Incidentally, since she has led songs, her future might lie in conducting an all-girl orchestra. VVe don't know her chosen Field, but we feel sure it will be one requiring plenty of pep and action. Her formula is I.10Gfi'I'3-S2H15. QI.aughs plus good times yield success and happiness.j VVe hope there are no explosions! JACK HARLEY-jack is a quiet fellow who takes great pleasure in tinkering with machinery, especially automo- biles. Driving a car seems to be his favorite diversion. He also takes a great interest in most athletics, particularly in baseball, a sport at which he excels. jack is a leader in his class in the Machine Shop. LEONARD HARNEY-f'Red is following in the footsteps of big brother - that of being an outstanding student in the Commercial Course. Everybody knows him for his ready smile that shines amid the freckles and red hair. He has many friends, both in his classes and around the school, and his quiet sincerity has netted him a wide circle of acquaintances. Page 27
